What is The Man from Toronto about?
By D.J. Rivera
It’s hard to find anybody that wouldn’t get excited about seeing a movie with either Kevin Hart or Woody Harrelson, but an action comedy with both in the mix is definitely a worthwhile affair, making The Man from Toronto a must-watch flick.
The laugh-out-loud action-packed thrill ride The Man from Toronto has Hart and Harrelson at the forefront as the exciting leads going all out at what those two seasoned pros do best, entertain viewers from start to finish. Alongside them bringing this entire affair to life onscreen is a stellar lineup featuring Ellen Barkin, Lela Loren, Kaley Cuoco, Pierson Fodé, Jasmine Mathews, Jencarlos Canela, Tomohisa Yamashita and Kate Drummond.
The director is none other than Patrick Hughes, whose previous directorial credits include The Hitman’s Bodyguard and The Hitman’s Bodyguard’s Wife. In addition, the film was composed by Ramin Djawadi, who is known for putting out some truly magnificent music for Game of Thrones, Metal Lords, Uncharted and Westworld.
The runtime for The Man From Toronto comes in at 1 hour and 52 minutes in length. With a decent budget, cast, runtime, and crew, the only thing left to figure out is what the narrative actually entails.
The Man from Toronto synopsis
In The Man From Toronto, Harrelson plays an infamous and highly elusive assassin and torture expert with the titular title that the federal authorities are trying to capture. But Hart’s character, Teddy, shows up at an Airbnb where he is mistaken for the hired killer.
Now the authorities and The Man From Toronto himself need Teddy to keep pretending to be the deadly psychopath, and the end result is nothing short of a wickedly funny, gut-busting good time.
Here is the official synopsis:
"A case of mistaken identity arises after a screw-up sales consultant and the world’s deadliest assassin—known only as The Man from Toronto—run into each other at a holiday rental."
